NEUTRAL

Lindsay

This weekend has given us some long awaited sunshine and everyone now seems to be on holiday countdown and excited for Summer to be here. All of us have our fingers crossed that this Easter weekend will be sunny so we can spend our time outside in the warmth! This outfit above is perfect for Easter festivities. Topshop's white shift dress is so perfect for summer and is certainly going to be one of my wardrobe staples this summer - I'm a sucker for white! Also this Mulberry bag has been on my wishlist for months, the colour is so cute and I wish it was mine!

MEREDITH

For such a long time I've been telling myself that I will wear more colour and actively steer clear of my monochrome addiction, but time after time I'm drawn to black and white pieces over all others. This beautiful dress from Topshop is a prime example. The back of it is black, so it's perfect for both casual and work environments; the panel of white at the front brightens it up. On top of that, the sleeves make it perfect for the impending cold season. So with all these things going for it, I reasoned that if I add a swipe of red lipstick (Tom Ford's reddest red if you please) then that would be colour enough for me, and thus I could allow myself one more black and white dress. After all, monochrome is versatile, right?

INTERVIEW

Callie

Hello lovely readers! Sorry for my absence but things have been hectic lately. I've finally finished uni and moved home (mixture of 'yay' and 'boo' here) which means that the horrible time has come: I have to find a job. But I'm excited to start the next chapter, especially if I get a job I like. Anyone looking for a newbie fashion merchandiser/marketer/social media/pr person, I'm here and free!

My friends from uni are also job hunting and one had an interview panic: What To Wear?! I haven't been to an interview in quite a while having always had a summer job at the same place, but it got me to thinking what I would wear. I refuse to go to a job interview wearing a black trouser suit. It has to be formal of course, but I think colours are positive signs in interviews. And as I'm applying for fashion-y jobs it's important to show you have some style!

So this is what I came up with as my ideal interview outfit (job depending of course). The earrings and bag add a little colour, whilst the white blazer would mean I was wearing the key part of my outfits - lots and lots of white. I saw this top on Opening Ceremony's Moda Operandi trunk sale and I love the detail on it. What would you wear to an interview?

HOMIES

Nadia

These brilliant Brian Lichetenberg t-shirts hit Net-A-Porter last week; along with the Homiés/Hermés one above there is a matching Féline/Céline number. I love these tees; I think with fashion we sometimes need reminding not to be to serious and to be able to have a bit of fun with what we wear. They're also great to play around with as they could be dressed up or down. Here I've paired them with this Tibi faux leather pleated skirt which is such a lovely colour, and a great day to night transitional piece. Also I've rediscovered my love for Valentino's footwear, and these PVC babies are the best ones I've seen recently.

How would you style your Homies/Feline tees?

N.B. The tees are actually full length and not cropped (I just cropped them for the image). See the set on Polyvore here.

The recent outings of the Resort 2013 collections have injected a dose of colour into the veins of our gloomy summer. Bottega Veneta gave us an array of coloured combinations, Marchesa gave us ballgowns in electric blue and pink, and Derek Lam presented the orangest pair of trousers known to man. But through this rainbow, one thing is clear. Regardless of the fact that these clothes don't drop until Autumn, white is back in a big way.

Looking through the Resort photos, I couldn't help but notice how many designers have given us white-on-white looks; white jackets layered over crisp white shirts and tailored white trousers, white blazers over white shirt dresses, and strangest of all, white shoes. Turns out Raf Simons white shoes at Jil Sander may have been a hit. 

So for Resort we'll all be looking clean and crisp in our white combos. Take direction from Stella McCartney's relaxed yet tailored layering, Givenchy's structured outerwear, and Celine's accessory matching. Just make sure you don't sit on anything, keep away from people with drinks, and hold your invite to Diddy's party in hand.
